Ryzen 7 3800XT vs Ryzen 7 5800H specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5800H beats the Ryzen 7 3800XT in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 3800XT in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3800XT has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800H. Also, the Ryzen 7 3800XT has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5800H outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 3800XT thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Ryzen 7 3800XT also has significantly more L3 cache.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3800XT has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
